Antihydrogen trapped for first time
Source: Berkeley Posted: 11/21/10
Physicists have succeeded in trapping antihydrogen — the antimatter equivalent of the hydrogen atom — a milestone that could soon lead to experiments on a form of matter that disappeared mysteriously shortly after the birth of the universe 14 billion years ago.
